Great article, great advice, except for this bit:
"You should wonder at the things nobody else is wondering about. If everybody’s wondering about apples, go wonder about oranges."
I think this is terrible advice. If your heart is in apples, stick with apples, switching to oranges just because nobody else is doing it goes against everything else he says in the article. Originality-for-its-own-sake never produced good art, just self-conscious, pretentious rubbish.

Live and let live...as long as they ain't hurtin' themselves or others, let 'em think about oranges.

Quote - **Get a day job and keep it. **A day job gives you money, a connection to the world, and a routine. Parkinson’s law: work expands to fill the time allotted. I work a 9-5 and I get about as as much art done now as I did when I worked part-time.
Best advice I've read in the whole article! Thinking about how many vendors and artists around here are struggling to make a living, they should really take that advice to heart. Especially vendors since quite a few tend to complain about how little money they make. When doing this, they can still make stuff and still earn enough.
Artwork and 3DToons items, create the perfect place for you toon and other figures!

Due to the childish TOS changes, I'm not allowed to link to my other products outside of Rendo anymore :(
Food for thought.....
